  1. BUTTERNUT BEAUTY

    Place a pot of cold salted water over a high heat. Add the butternut chunks and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until soft. Drain on completion and return to the pot. Add a splash of milk or water, a knob of butter or coconut oil, and some seasoning. Mash with a potato masher or fork until smooth and cover to keep warm.

  2. SIZZLING CHICKY

    Place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the chicken mini fillets for 1-2 minutes per side until golden. Remove from the pan and set aside to rest for 3 minutes.

  3. MMMOUTHWATERING AROMAS

    Boil the kettle. Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the diced onion and fry for 3-4 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. Add the grated garlic and the rub. Fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, shifting constantly. Add the tomato passata and 150ml of boiling water. Simmer for 6-8 minutes or until slightly reduced. In the final 2-3 minutes, add the browned chicken to the sauce. Add ½ the chopped oregano, a sweetener of choice, salt, and pepper.

  4. SAUCY MARROWS

    While the sauce is simmering, place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the baby marrow wedges or halves and fry for 3-5 minutes per side until charred and cooked through. Remove from the pan and squeeze over some lemon juice and season.
